It looks like it’s got a peen.
I don’t know what you’re talking about. The birthing process is always beautiful.
i am more sickened by that kid’s filthy face.
I don’t understand — what’s gross about jelly? Or would you prefer “aspic”?
If you look in the bottom of the pan it looks like an a couple of raw eggs come out of the can, or chicken, too.
Canned pheasant from Fortnum and Mason’s looks pretty much like that too.
Looks like chicken confit. Perfectly normal. Everyone is familiar with duck confit. Same thing, but with chicken. (Confit is a pre-refrigeration technique where you use salt and fat to preserve something)
it really does look like that chicken came with a “bonus egg!”. fuck.
oh well kid, “PLAY BALL!”
Get over it.
Reddit commenters say it’s great for chicken soup.
this made me make a “OH GOD EEUUUGH” face
that picture just gave me swine flu.
I’m feeling a little under-the-weather stomach-wise anyways, and that picture is doing me no favors at the moment. Blech.
D:
how much lube does it take to get a whole chicken in your can?
@9, do you know what else is good for chicken soup? A chicken that didn’t come out of a can.
There’s something very H.R. Giger “Alien” about that.
@14, and if you don’t have one of those, but do have one of these, what would you suggest? Fresh chickens are not around in all situations; neither are freezers.
Canned foods are a major, major lifesaver in the history of human eating habits, and are a cornerstone of any “eat local” regimen, particularly in places where you can’t grow everything year-round. There are plenty of places where chickens come under that heading.
Holy fucking yuck!
@16. I have to agree with you.
There is something indescribably heady and exciting about low acid foods, thermally cooked in hermetically sealed containers.
Back in the olden times of my youth, when fresh food was generally frowned upon and it was generally assumed that we would be eating our food in pill form in the 21st century ala the Jetsons, my dad made the most fabulous chicken and dumplings, using canned chicken. I have tried numerous times to make chicken and dumplings as delicious with fresh chicken and while I can whip up some pretty tasty vittles, I have never really attained the sublime perfection of my father’s version. I have actually sought out canned chicken, but to no avail. My search will begin anew.
On an interesting side note, my spell check doesn’t recognize the word “vittles”, and suggests “tittles” in it’s place.
What the fuck is a “tittle”?
The whole photo is just disturbing looking. Who would have thought they would put whole chickens in cans? Have never seen something like that before. Weird and gross
@ 19
“A tittle is a small distinguishing mark, such as a diacritic or the dot on a lowercase i or j.”
“weird and gross”
county rube, get a clue
canned chicken, nothing else, you eat it all the time, shredded chicken in the taco??? get it …
rubes are worser than trolls
Chickens do not belong in cans. 🙁
thanks, dots and crosses @21.
Dude, I have eaten canned chicken. Many times. But, it was pieces of chicken in a can (incorporated into a dish). Not a whole chicken packed in jelly. It may all end up in the same place, but there is a definite aesthetic difference here…
@22, did you mean country or cunty rube? because in any case, I would think rubes of either sort would have had exposure and knowledge to & of this form of canned poultry product; perhaps you should modify your suggestion to imply that, rather, it is snobby city folk who are unschooled in things about canned chk’n.
@ 16 is right for the most part.
“Canned foods are a major, major lifesaver in the history of human eating habits,”
yeah, that is once they stopped using lead solder to seal the cans.
@26
Perhaps he actually meant rubes from the county. Which county is up to your imagination. I’m going to suppose Jefferson, or perhaps Skagit.
@28: I’d suspect Cowlitz or Franklin, but most likely Pierce. If it were Wa counties that is.
is that prejean’s breast implants?
oooh! i got one of these from ms. dina martina as a prize a good 10+ years ago while sitting next to my then vegan girlfriend…how’d she know?!
kinda wish i still had it after seeing this photo. BLEECH!
Isn’t this what Dina Martina gives out as a jift for x-mas?
